1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Lipid membranes are complex quasi-two-dimensional fluids, whose importance in biology and unique physical/materials properties have made them a major target for biophysical research. Recent single-molecule tracking experiments in membranes have caused some controversy, calling the venerable Saffman-Delbrück model into question and suggesting that, perhaps, current understanding of membrane hydrodynamics is imperfect. However, single-molecule tracking is not well suited to resolving the details of hydrodynamic flows; observations involving correlations between multiple molecules are superior for this purpose. Here dual-color molecular tracking with submillisecond time resolution and submicron spatial resolution is employed to reveal correlations in the Brownian motion of pairs of fluorescently labeled lipids in membranes. These correlations extend hundreds of nanometers in freely floating bilayers (black lipid membranes) but are severely suppressed in supported lipid bilayers. The measurements are consistent with hydrodynamic predictions based on an extended Saffman-Delbrück theory that explicitly accounts for the two-leaflet bilayer structure of lipid membranes.
